Student Employment
Student employment at Western Oregon University gives students the opportunity to gain necessary skills and experience that they will need for their careers down the road. To aid both students and supervisors, we have created a section with specifics relating to supervising student employees, working as a student employee and job/internship resources. For questions or comments regarding student employment policy and practices, please contact the Human Resources Office.

Background Checks
For student employees, we are currently navigating an internal process to streamline background checks and appreciate your patience as we work through this transition. At this time we will be including an Employment Authorization form that will initiate the process.
For volunteers, relevant forms will continue to be attached to the volunteer form for completion.
